@mobola_ade I've learn a lot, thanks for sharing

[Lady B - IYALODE OF X @mobola_ade]

Your hormones control far more than your period.

They influence your mood, energy, libido, fertility, pregnancy, bone health, and even breastfeeding.

Meet the hormones that keep the female body running.👇

🧠 Everything starts in the brain.

The female reproductive system works like a team:

Brain → Pituitary gland → Ovaries → Uterus

These organs constantly communicate with each other to regulate your menstrual cycle, fertility, and pregnancy.

When one part is out of balance, the entire system can be affected.

🌸 Estrogen

Produced mainly by the ovaries.

It helps: • Develop female sexual characteristics during puberty.
• Regulate the menstrual cycle.
• Keep the uterus healthy.
• Support strong bones.
• Maintain healthy skin.
• Influence mood and brain function.

Think of estrogen as one of the body's main "growth and maintenance" hormones.

🌼 Progesterone

Produced mainly after ovulation by the corpus luteum.

Its job is to:
• Prepare the uterus for pregnancy.
• Support early pregnancy.
• Help regulate the menstrual cycle.

If pregnancy doesn't occur, progesterone levels fall, triggering menstruation.

🥚 FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone)

Produced by the pituitary gland.

It:
• Stimulates ovarian follicles to grow.
• Helps eggs mature before ovulation.

Without FSH, ovulation cannot occur normally.

LH (Luteinizing Hormone)

Also produced by the pituitary gland.

Its famous LH surge triggers ovulation, the release of a mature egg.

It also helps the ovary produce progesterone afterward.

🤱 Prolactin

Made by the pituitary gland.

Its primary role is:
• Stimulating breast development.
• Producing breast milk after childbirth.

High prolactin levels outside pregnancy can sometimes interfere with ovulation and menstrual cycles.

❤️ Oxytocin

Often called the "love hormone."

Produced in the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland.

It helps:
• Trigger uterine contractions during labor.
• Release breast milk during breastfeeding.
• Support bonding between mother and baby.

Oxytocin is also released during hugging, intimacy, and orgasm.

🤰 hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin)

Produced by the placenta after implantation.

Its job is to:
• Maintain early pregnancy.
• Support progesterone production until the placenta takes over.

It's also the hormone detected by pregnancy tests.

💪 Testosterone (Yes, women have it too.)

Women produce small amounts in the ovaries and adrenal glands.

It helps with:
• Sexual desire (libido).
• Muscle strength.
• Bone health.
• Energy levels.

Healthy hormone balance, not having "more" or "less" of one hormone, is what matters most.

Your menstrual cycle is a carefully coordinated hormonal symphony.

Around the middle of the cycle, estrogen rises, an LH surge triggers ovulation, and progesterone peaks afterward to prepare the uterus for a possible pregnancy.

Understanding these hormones helps you better understand your body, recognize changes, and know when something may need medical attention.

😂 POV: You said “I’ll only check my phone for 5 minutes”

Next thing…
You’ve watched 47 reels, liked posts from 2022, checked your skincare cart 6 times, and suddenly you’re now a advisor in the comment section. 🤷‍♀️🤔

At this point, your phone battery is begging for mercy. 😂

[Roqeebah Bolarin @JustBolarin]

It's a wrap.💃🥂📌
30 days ago, this journey started with a simple decision to show up consistently, grow daily, become better one step at a time.
Through this challenge, we talked about wellness, skincare, self-care, motivation, healthy habits, confidence, and personal growth.

[Roqeebah Bolarin @JustBolarin]

Keep showing up and be Consistent.... Even if the results are slow, one day you will thank yourself for not giving up.🙏

[Roqeebah Bolarin @JustBolarin]

Be proud of how far you've gone, and keep going.
Your future is watching.

Happy new week.✨

@AngeLGeepsycht @mobola_ade Some don't even know their genotype, check your genotype today to save your children from Pain.

[Gabriel C Amos (AngeLGee) @AngeLGeepsycht]

You're busy having SEX in your relationship.

But, you won't check your genotype until it's time to marry.

And when you discover you're both “AS genotypes" - you will start saying:

“We have spent 2/3/4/5/6 yrs together. So we love each other so much. Let us marry like that."

Mumu. Foolish people📌

If you know you and your bf/gf have AS genotypes but, still go ahead to marry each other - then, you're very WICKED.

Most annoying part?

Many couples who have SS children actually married with their 2 eyes open.

And after giving birth to a SS child, they'll start praying and fasting for God to heal the child.

Na Lie. E no go work.

You must dance to your music.🤌

You'll spend money tire. In fact, you'll be drained financially, emotionally and mentally.

After that? There's a 70% chance that the child will still die young.

Anyway, when I see some parents crying because of the death of their sickle cell child, I have NEVER empathized with them, and will never feel sorry for them.

Instead, I pity the poor child (who suffered daily till death).

Personally, I wish those parents can be arrested and jailed for at least 3-yrs with hard labour.

The point?

It might be difficult and heartbreaking to end a sweet relationship (especially when you've invested in it). This is why you must check your genotype in the first 2 months.

Because Why?

If you know the PAIN people with sickle cell feel in their bones and the psychological trauma they endure (especially during their crisis) - you'll NEVER get married when you and your partner are both AS genotypes.

Once again,

Don't be wicked. Don't be selfish.

Don't put your children in Lifetime of pain & tears.

Don't test God. It's better to be safe than to be sorry.

The END.💙🏆

@coachemmanuel24 Hmmm, yes.

[Roqeebah Bolarin @JustBolarin]

May Allah (SWT) accept our Ibadah, forgive our shortcomings, and grant us peace, blessings, and success in this life and the hereafter.
Remember to make plenty of du'a, send salawat on the Prophet (SAW), and read Suratul Kahf.

Jumu'ah Mubarak!✨🤍

@LawGee_solution @coachemmanuel24 Knowledge is power.

[Roqeebah Bolarin @JustBolarin]

You're one decisions away from a whole new life.

Go for that things you've always want to start. 📌
